BogDamus

In days of yore (i.e.; a long time ago), a bloke called Nostradamus came up with a bunch of vague predictions that seemed to mirror things that happened in real life.
What are the odds that we can do better?

29th November

No predictions for this date yet...

Also predicted for November

Saturday, 12th November 2011:
After deciding that he has finally made enough money (with a personally fortune greater than the national GDP of Paraguay), Bill Gates starts giving Windows Vista away without charge.

Number of instances of people voluntarily using Vista increases by 300,000 in the first month but is only 4 the following month (those 4 not knowing how to uninstall the cluster-fucked operating system).

Tuesday, 14th October 2397:
The Church of Scientology begins to divide up Vatican City amongst its rich patrons. "St Peter's Square" is renamed "Xenu's Great Launchpad" and Tom Cruise's face is painted over Adam's on the roof of the Sistine Chapel (becoming the "Creation of Tom" instead of the "Creation of Adam").

Historians decry the event and weep as thousands of priceless, ancient texts dating back to the alleged time of Jesus become framed decorations for John Travolta's toilet.

Ultimately, the entire city nation is abandoned as angry scholars from around the globe chase the Hollywood A-listers back to California where they belong.

After sympathetic votes from the Welsh vote (Catherine Zeta Jones) and a bizarre, unexpected vote for the English by the Irish judge (Bono), the result is decided by the US judge, George Lucas.

After declaring that he was overwhelmed by one performer's dance and that, for him their could only be one winner (showing a bizarre sense of drama for someone so shit at writing for the screen), Mr Lucas is killed when an irate Star Wars fanatic seizes an opportunity and bludgeons him to death,

All work on the new live-action Star Wars series is halted indefinitely. The international community of Star Wars fans breath a collective sigh of relief.

Drawing on the parallels of Darth Vader's fall (from great Jedi to Sith Lord), Star Wars fans honour Lucas' life and acknowledge his similar fall (from screenwriting legend to washed-up hack) by burning his body on a pyre in the Twilight hours.

The decade begins with massive civil unrest over whether to call the year "Twenty Ten" or "Two Thousand and Ten" with those favouring the former branding those supporting the latter "Future Haters".

Further friction accompanies the naming of the decade with many disatisfied at the naming of the previous decade the "noughties" and equally appalled by the choice of the name "tennies".

Massive riots punctuate the decade with rival groups bringing major cities to a standstill in bitter clashes.

Politicians themselves are unable to agree appropriate legislation to settle the dispute and, instead, agree that time should be taken to negotiate with leaders from each faction whilst charging it to a massive expense account,
